"Thanks JJ, again it was really great to
meet you and Suzanne yesterday." "Comprehensive, thorough,
professional, assuring, friendly, informative are some of the words
that come to mind.." Suzette

Seattle's Top Inspection Team, with Two State Licensed Home Inspectors

We are
independent, the only one we work
for is
our clients.

Suzanne and JJ are both State Licensed Home Inspectors

Many
inspectors make you wait for a report. You will never
have to wait for our inspection results, all reports are
printed on-site. We
use a unique inspection reporting system we developed
ourselves over many years.

We are educators of our cleints and new home inspectors (we own the School of Professional Home Inspection.) We offer education, and answers to your questions. Unless
you
have a report
in hand before we leave, there can be critical details that you may not
understand. How do you know what to ask an inspector without
a
report?

We
have
been asked many times "What is it like to work with your
spouse?" I can honestly say that I don't recommend it for most couples,
but they
are not married to my spouse! :-)

Members of ASHI,
(American Society of Home
Inspectors) ASHI certifications assure
you that we are the best trained and tested inspectors in the
profession. This is achieved by real testing of applicants (no phony
internet
certifications
here) and peer reviews of actual inspection reports.

ASHI
is by far the toughest home
inspection association to join and maintain membership. They require
that the
person have completed no less than 250 paid professional home
inspections and
the completion of two written examinations.

Once
a person becomes a member, he/she
must take continuing education. No other association certification
program even
comes close to these requirements.

Many
say they inspect to ASHI standards, but
this is not the same as being an ASHI Certified inspector. We are
both licensed by the State of
Washington.

no pesticide treatments required.

Northwest. Only carpenter ants rival them in importance.
